I was born in Idaho. Lived there all of 3-4 months.
Just finished Petit Le Mans (watch it with my father's who's ill so we watch it after the fact in 1-2 hour blocks). Overall, pretty superb, as expected. Some thoughts.
-Heartbreaking to see the 5 blow its brake up with only 10-15 minutes left.
-Even more heartbreaking seeing the Wynn's Merc dead on the track on the last lap (even more so since they're departing the series...a sour end)
-Nice to see that the BOP for the DPI category was the best it's been this year at this track with everyone spending time at the front, etc.
-Auberlen is a legend and continues to be so, congrats to him.
-Legge surprised me as I saw her involved in no less than four contact incidents (I don't believe any were major offs/crashes). Just seemed to be hitting or was hit by...everyone!
-GTD was probably the stand out for me this race. Constant pressure and tight racing the entire way, including a superb last 15-20 minutes
-Awesome to see Montoya win a championship. While still a solid driver I think it's safe to say that a couple years back he was probably thinking his winning/glory days might have been done and gone.
Overall, just good stuff with some serious heart break at the end. I've been nervous with all the not-so-great news coming out about the future of IMSA, but I hope it gets a second wind and stays strong.
